Mother’s Day is right around the corner (2 weeks)!

That’s Emily, Her Cousin, and Her Mom! Who’s the Special Mom in Your Life?

Here are 10 gift ideas that will make Mom happy. And earn you extra points!

10 Gifts That Will Earn You Extra Brownie Points on Mother’s Day!

Whether you’re looking for gift ideas for your mom, mother-in-law, or partner, here are 10 that will put extra points in your account!

1. Flowers

A bouquet of fresh flowers might make your mom feel special on Mother’s Day. And there are a lot of promotions and shopping portal bonuses that will earn points!

Promotional Codes

The promotion codes for this deal seem to change often, but you could try code “RR22” to earn 1,000 Southwest points when you spend at least ~$30.

Earn Up to 15 Chase Ultimate Rewards Points per $1 Spent on Flowers Through the Chase Shopping Portal

Plus, you’ll still earn the usual 1 Chase Ultimate Rewards point per $1 spent on your card, for a total of 16X points!

So if you spend $60 on flowers at Teleflora and used a card such as the Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Freedom, Chase Ink Bold (no longer available), or Chase Ink Plus card, you’d earn a total of 960 Ultimate Rewards points(16 Ultimate Rewards points X $60 spent on flowers).

If your mom doesn’t like flowers, you can also buy gift baskets, candy, and more from these stores.

2. Restaurants

Spend extra time with your mom by treating her to a nice meal.

If you use your Chase Freedom card you’ll earn 5X Chase Ultimate Rewards points (5% cash back) on up to $1,500 in spending, because restaurants are a bonus category through June 30, 2015. Remember to activate the bonus!

3. Travel

Do you get your sense of wanderlust from your mom?

Redeem your miles and points for a Mother’s Day weekend getaway!

If you can’t find award tickets or hotels 2 weeks out, you could splurge on travel using your Chase Sapphire Preferred or Barclaycard Arrival Plus to earn 2X points per $1 you spend. No mom I know would refuse a vacation!

Use the gift card online through a shopping portal and you’ll get even more bonus points!

6. Amazon

Does Mom like to read? Maybe she’d enjoy new books to add to her collection or even a new Kindle.

And what I like about Amazon is, you can get just about anything there!

But 1st, earn 5X points by purchasing an Amazon gift card at an office supply store with a card like the Chase Ink Cash. Or earn 6% cash back for buying an Amazon gift card at your local supermarket with the Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express,

However, you should still shop around for the best price. It isn’t worth paying more to earn a few extra bonus points!

Good luck with finding the perfect gift for Mom!
